He will turn 14 March 23rd
That's great! Sounds like he likes what he is doing. My 17 year old initially was so-so on the martial arts, but now all his college application essays are about how much he loves it! He got his BB in arnis just before his 17th birthday last summer. He likes to spar but isn't headed to any national competitions, in part for lack of serious sparring partners in our little town.
